FC-1010-CS 1/2 RET

Slide Bearing Assembly with tack or full welded elements. This configuration incorporates 1/2" thick Viblon or Reinforced Elastomer Bearing Pad in the lower element, which meets AASHTO Spec 18.4.10.1. The FC-1010-CS 1/2 RET compensates for expansion and deflection at higher load values.

Upper Element :
3/32" thick Fluorogold® bonded to 10 gauge carbon steel backing plate, tack welded to the structural steel member or sole plate.

Lower Element : 
3/32" thick Fluorogold® bonded to 10 gauge carbon steel backing plate, then vulcanized to 1/2" thick Viblon or Reinforced Elastomer Bearing Pad, AASHTO spec. 18.4.10.1. A steel plate is also bonded below the Viblon pad so the lower element can be welded in place. The thickness of the neoprene and the steel plates are variable.
